US may leave defense of south europe to EU itself and focus north EU.
Far easier at this point to just exclude the US, not to mention improving security of meetings and defense planning.
Classical devide and conquer, it is the way the usa rules...the uninvited now will put efford to do anything the great great semigod wants them to do.
american empire doing "divide and rule" tactics on former european empires is divine irony.
Italy and Greece, the NATO countries doing ALL the heavy lifting in the Red Sea are also not present, but obviously DW didn't noticed🤦♂️.<br>As an Italian I think we should recall all the equipements and men deployed on the NATO east flank and see if anyone suddently notices.<br>After all, nobody in Europe seems to care about what happens in the enlarged Mediterranean, so why should we care about East Europe?
USA with a meeting of its utter vassal states.<br><br>Those spineless countries that will do nothing when Greenland is invaded.
This guy and his meaningless and baseless assumptions
It's an obvious attempt to give talking point to Reform UK and National Rally. They did similar things with AfD. Cmon this is not hard to spot.
Translation: buying US kit. And - more widely - splitting the alliance against Russian aggression. Just as his masters in the Kremlin want.
UK - taken granted, France - no money left
The Baltic states are the annoying chihuahua of the world. They constantly provoking Russia and expect the US to protect them when there are consequences
The only reason because some members are left out can only be trust. Or more precisely the lack of trust.
He's inviting the ones that are richer, except Spain
Goal (project 2025?)... creating/enhancing division within NATO and within Europe.

I don't even blame Washington for trying a "divide and conquer" strategy on Europe—that’s just basic geopolitics. I blame the European countries that are actually falling for it and accepting this new format.
France and the UK started the NATO. Plus they are two most powerful next to the US.
After November Trump won't be allowed to do anything in regards to defense. Democrats are already writing up impeachment proceedings that the Supreme Court cannot undo. The first proceeding will be Trump not being able to represent the U.S abroad until the next Presidential election. Most people don't understand what impeachment actually means? Trump won't be in control of the military anymore as well. Congress will.
Get rid of France and the UK and the rest are dependant on the usa for a nuclear umbrella. This canadian will never forget France parking one of thier subs in Halifax not long after Taco began threatening Canada. I'll never trust the usa again and anyone who chooses more dependancy on the usa after the last two years deserves the troubles it will cause them. Continue decoupling. America first must mean america alone.
To be fair the British government don't take defence seriously. They keep saying the world is getting more dangerous but apartcfrom testing some new drones they've done little else. Even expanding the cadets has now been delayed. Still no SSN's, no heavy artillery, no depth, no hurry to sort it out.
Start listning at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GZKgr1Qju7s&t=645">10:45</a>. That's where the REAL question is.
Why is Canada, a founding member of NATO not even mentioned?🇨🇦💪
NATO as we knew is over. The US is not an ally but an user.
Divide and conquer, Trump is using the tools of his master in Moscow.
Any meetings without all of NATO need to be boycottet by all members!
The war mongers want to sell weapons and start wars to make profit..news are sponsored and dare not see this pattern..
Washington can never be trusted again!
Colby is the name of a cheese.
Come back to Europe when you have a proper Sec. of D and not a hair stylist.
Everytime I see a picture of Trump pointing his finger at the press, I can't help but hear him say, "pull my finger." 😋
Frankly who cares?
The United States is trying to rule the world. US should be thrown out of NATO.
MAGA alliance of good european
Putin has an agreement with Germany and the rest of western europe that when russia attacks baltics/eastern europe then the west won't interfere. Stated by Stoltenberg himself. "Smaller group of NATO" is nothing new.
PENTAGON AND TRUMP PULLING NATO APART TO REESTABLISH IN USA’s FAVOUR AND OWN BUSINESS INTEREST! Putin works tirelessly to undermine NATO! Trump had Victor ORBAN veto EU funding for Ukraine. ORBAN is in Putin’s inner circle. Trump established the so-called BOARD OF PEACE to get his fingers into the GAZA STRIP. Trump dismantled the JCPOA and started a war of choice with IRAN!Any boards Trump established will be fully loaded with his own cronies. Just like SCOTUS, KENNEDY CENTRE AND BOARD OF PEACE 😂😂😂! He is a manipulative narcissist and sociopath!
UN...NATO.....hmm.....USEFUL?
a European NATO sounds like a better idea
It is a shame that NATO did not stop to exst after the fall of the Sovjet Union then we would not be in this mess in the first place...
Designed to breakup NATO. Divide and conquer.
The sense of desperation is palpable.
"Set aside bonkers." With Trump bonkers has no upper limit.
"A COALITION BECAUSE NATO IS NOT GOING TO ACT"<br>ITS MORE LIKELY THAT AMERICA UNDER TRUMP WILL NOT ACT!
The best way to group people is by time zone... I don't know why people don't see that. It seems obvious to me ~
The US is exiting NATO. This bloc is finished.
I hate the United States.
This is all part of Putin's wish list. Although Ukraine is not going his way, the US is most definitely doing his bidding.
Putins puppet. EVERYTHING Trump is doing is Putins playbook and dream to divide NATO. Trump is a loser and will lose again soon.
Do not trust the current administration!! Jared krusner is tied to Israeland Don junior is tied to Russia! Donald John trump can be bought with lavish gifts
So childish it's disturbing.
Time for Europe to build its own defence coalition. It's long overdue to exit NATO.
NATO is the USA in Europe nothing less nothing more … this gayropeans just waking up from 1945 lol
Thank you for your report.<br>Liked, Subscribed, Shared.
He's already got his eyes on annexing Canada, Greenland and Iceland. I could see him wanting to take over Ireland and the UK too. He doesn't need those countries in NATO if they belong to the US anyway.
Nordics understand the Russian threat and that they're next if the Ukraine loses. Trump wants a win for his mate Putin. So, I'd say it's probably going to be trying to convince the Nordics that if only they'd bail on helping the Ukraine and just let Russia have what they want (even though Russia has openly said they won't stop), that in return the US would guarantee that they'll not get attacked. <br><br>Maybe that's cynical, we'll see.
lol. what is common to those countries? they have money to pay the protection money. the bankrupt members of nato are of no use. simple
Trumps regime try to destroy NATO.
The UK France Spain are a joke. They cannot even protect their own countries. W.o the US they would be under German control.
Of course the Netherlands, Germany, Poland, Norway, Sweden and Finland are bending over for the US. Instead of looking to Europe and strengthen our own defense. The US isn't a reliable partner and treats us like dirt but these countries are weak. The US trying to split us up and succeeding. The US is only interested in our money and nothing more. They don't care about our safety or defense. Why do you think they are bringing the countries together who are spending the most?
I think we Europeans should demand our colonies back and start stationing troops there. For security reasons!
I'm worried US tries to create divisions in Europe. But this seems to have a pretty simple formula. If % of GDP to military is high you are invited. And I can't imagine its some kind of plan to create a inner circle. More having meetings with countries who reaches the threshold.
Trump: I'm not only the BOSS, but also your Sugar Daddy 😊
Lol you mean if you hit or exceed your NATO spending you get a meeting if you dont no meeting
The United States does not want to cooperate on security matters with European countries that are merely freeloading.
On top of being frame mogged by Trump, Mark's head looks comically huge in the thumbnail.
And we Swedes should restart our nuclear program.
Divide and conquer? No thanks!
We should start having meetings without the US.
NATO aggression is the problem.
No.
The Pentagon working with a smaller group of capable allies could make NATO stronger. But Britain, France and the Baltic states are outside this particular group. Is this simply a more efficient way for Washington to get things done, or could it create an inner circle within NATO?
